@-Col G. Irving Dirty, who formerly resided
in the LIST district of this county, died at his resi-
idence, in Baltimore, on Monday last. Until
about ten years ago, when his health failed, Col.
Ditty took an active interest in the politics of
Baltimore county and was an earnest Republican.
He fought all through the war in the Confederate
army and no Drawer man ever drew q sword. His
whole heart was in. everything he undertook and
although he was frequently assailed and his mo-
tives questioned by those who did not agree with
him, he was a thoroughly honest man and one
who would scorn to do dishonorable act. When
he was Collector of Internal Revenue in Balti-
more he refused to support Republican nominee
for Congress because he believed that he had not
secured his nomination through honorable means.
His friends advised him to drop the matter and
make no opposition to the nominee, telling him II
would be the cause of his losing his Office. But
he said no Office in the gift of the President could
prevent him from doing what he thought was
right. He did oppose the nominee and short
time after the election, broken in health and with
out means, he was turned out We only give this
as an instance to show the character of the man.
A prominent Republican once said that Col.
Ditty's STANDARD ofpoitica ethics was too high"
When some one mentioned this to the Colonel he
said: "WelI, that may be, according to his view,
but an honest man must be honest in politics as
we'll as in everything else." And that was the
character of the man. Whatever he did was done
with the purest motives and with an honesty of
purpose that others would do well to emulate
Truly may it be said of him that che would not
bend the supple hinges of the.k knee that thrift
might follow fawning." 9

@-Mr. W. Benton Crisp, president Of the
Democratic City Convention of Baltimore, has
written remarkable letter to the chairman Of
City Executive Committee, declining to serve any
longer in that position. He says ''it has become
quite clear to my mind that the City Convention,
as at present constituted, does not represent the
party, but registers simply the DEGREES of few
inscriptions persons. = How is it with
those who claim to be the party, who control the
conventions and nominate candidates How is it,
indeed, with those who control the City Conven-
ton to-day? They have resorted systematically
to fraudulent methods to maintain their control
and power. Recent developments have
shown-indeed, have proven beyond a question
that those persons who have control absolutely of
party affairs to-day, and who arrogate to them
selves, and to themselves alone, the name of the
Democratic party, have with their agents-often
ignorant men-robbed the balIot-boxes, perverted
the registration l;sts into Instruments of FRAUD,
and have used the patronage of the Federal, State
and city governments corruptly for the purpose of
perpetuating their hold upon the party organiza-
ton, which they misrepresent and disgrace"

It strikes us that the above is pretty rough
